DONE DEAL: Mario Gotze leaves PSV for Eintracht Frankfurt

Mario Gotze has joined Eintracht Frankfurt from PSV.

The World Cup winner returns to the Bundesliga after a two-year spell in Holland.

"Eintracht Frankfurt have agreed a contract until 2025 with Mario Gotze as they continue to form their squad for the upcoming season," Frankfurt stated on their club website..

"The 30-year-old made 77 appearances over the past two seasons for PSV Eindhoven, where he won the Dutch Super Cup in 2021 and the KNVB Cup in 2022, registering 18 goals and 18 assists."

Sporting director Markus Krosche added: "The fact that a player like Mario Gotze has chosen, with full conviction, Eintracht Frankfurt over numerous other offers speaks volumes for the outstanding image that the club has built over the past few years.

"I don't need to say much about his footballing qualities. We've been lacking a player of his type. Mario's technical ability will help our game enormously, particularly when we're in possession against deep-lying opponents.

"Moreover, he can showcase his strengths in virtually any attacking position, which gives us even more tactical variability. Last but not least, he brings many years of experience at the highest international level."
